Aneesh Chopra
Appointed as the first Chief Technology Officer of the United States, Aneesh Chopra clearly outlines ways technology can spur innovation, strengthen America’s competitiveness in the world, and solve the vexing problems facing the domains of health care, education, and energy.
Selected as the nation’s first Chief Technology Officer by President Obama, Aneesh Chopra was tasked with promoting innovation, transparency, and collaboration within the federal government. An energetic groundbreaker who previously served as Virginia’s fourth Secretary of Technology, Chopra catapulted the nation’s technology agenda forward by fostering new ideas and encouraging government-wide collaboration. By introducing the concept of “open innovation,” which tapped into the private sector to solve long-standing government problems—job creation, reducing health-care costs, protecting the homeland—Chopra arrived at solutions often overlooked by his counterparts. His wide array of accomplishments include designing the National Wireless Initiative, a nationwide public safety broadband network, and implementing the President’s open government…
- Innovative State: Growth Opportunities in an Era of Digital Public/Private Collaboration
From President Obama’s first full day in office to President Trump’s new Office of American Innovation, the United States has directed resources to foster a more open, innovative government. Aneesh Chopra served as the nation’s first chief technology officer and his legacy of private-sector collaboration, including his work with health and workforce data, continues to offer growth opportunities throughout the economy. His 2014 book, Innovative State: How New Technologies Can Transform Government, describes the “impatient convening” role that government should play: opening up data and encouraging its use, convening the private sector in the design and adoption of standards, and fostering an ecosystem of entrepreneurs and innovators to join in solving problems. - Open Data, IT, and Value-Based Payment: The (Bipartisan) Approach to Health-Care Delivery Reform
As the debate over the future of the Affordable Care Act rages in Washington, one set of reforms continues unabated: the movement to transform the way we deliver health care. As the first U.S. chief technology officer, Aneesh Chopra worked to align payment reform with advances in health IT and to shift to open more government-held health data—changes that are ushering in a golden era of IT-fueled care delivery innovation. - Opening Up While Locking Down: Balancing Collaboration and Security in Regulated Markets
The exponential growth of data throughout the economy holds both promise and peril. As the first U.S. chief technology officer, Aneesh Chopra played a pivotal role in the government’s decision to open up more data for commercial use, regulate interoperability standards to boost competition, and invest in breakthrough technologies to address the growing cybersecurity threat. While seemingly at odds—reaping the economic benefits of open collaboration while minimizing the risks of cyber-attacks—Chopra worked to advance technical and business model solutions to meet these challenges through an open innovation strategy. Data Ethics and Digital Trust
From large-scale breaches that expose sensitive customer data, to AI-powered algorithms that discriminate how they are served, or business models that target them based on information they did not authorize for use, board members are raising important governance questions to balance growth and responsibility. This conversation will focus on how to maximize the value of “big data” while protecting customer privacy, securing customer data, and establishing ethical guardrails to instill trust in the wake of FB/Cambridge Analytica absent regulatory certainty.
